G13 Haze just before harvest.

Wanted to do my first grow journal right. So here we go. Hopefully I'll get some good advice on here. I got the whole light package yesterday. Room will have C02 and be perfectly sealed. Just waiting on the freight truck for the Ecoplus 1 1/2 hp chiller and 8" ice boxes for my cooling...

Just so you know tiger, grow, sesame, beastie, and ching arent organic only the big bloom. They do contain organic ingredients but they are chemical fertilizers mainly. I have used fox farms with excellent results but just switched to all organic and I would definetly advise it. I will have...

Id have to say purple wreck. Smells funky as hell.

Here in nw washington a zip of A++ is around 200-240 from the friends and at the dispensaries its about 280+. Damn this makes me love the west coast. Cant believe prices going east.

Damn barrelhse thats a fine bitch! I have been thinking about getting a querkle, gonna have to now.

I use 6" hose clamps with 6" ducting from home depot or lowes. Make sure to strech or fully extend the ducting between connections and try not to have any sharp turns thoughout the ducting either. This helps out a lot when you're not using a fan over 800-1000 CFM. You might as well spend the...

I would stick with the hydroton. I think STG is a cool idea and all but for one hydroton is reusable and works great with a regular fill and drain schedule. STG on the other hand fluctuates too much. Some days it only needs one flood and others it needs 2-3. STG is probably the worst at...

I have used sure to grow a little bit and found the key is to have a small layer of hydroton on the bottom and set the STG on top. This fixed all of my issues.

You are generally supposed to add the correct ppm + the ppm of your water. So if you are going for 1000ppm you would have a reading on your meter of 1380ppm when all nutes have been added.

Amazing setup and grow. Just one question Which can filter is that? Also how big of a fan are you running with it?

One more thing, do you prune the bottoms and just grow the colas? You said you reached 1 1/2 lbs last harvest, was that just cola bud?

I'm currently building a system based off of your setup. My only concern is that you might be having a problem with crowding or do they grow fine just like that? Do you think your yield was less because the space issue? Also how tall are they when it comes time to chop'em down? Thanks for the...

What medium are you using? If you're using rockwool, did you soak it for the correct amount of time? If you're using hydroton, did you rinse all the pebbles until you were getting clear water?

Just read all 31 pages and love everybodys setup. Great 1st hydro run. My $.02 I think you could improve your yield by running a cycle timer either 30 sec on 3 off or 1 on 4 off. I have also seen an improvement from having a seperate res so that the roots just grow in mist. I believe it has...
